Yaadain TeriYaadein teri har roz shaam ko darwaaze se jhaankti hain
Main bhi sota nahi raat ko, ye bhi saath mein jaagti hain
Lekar aati hain saath mein baatein, kasmein aur sab waade
Bahta hai phir neer aankhon se, meri naa ye maanti hain
Ab to teri tasveeron se bhi dar lagne laga hai mujhe
Chhoone lagta hoon jab inko, ungliyaan...

Chaand Bhi Jalne Laga HaiMain thehar gaya hoon aur mann teri ore chalne laga hai
Tu itni khoobsurat hai ki chaand bhi jalne laga hai
Tujhe dekh raha hoon aur mil raha hai sukoon mujhko
Ye tera nasha hi to hai jo bin piye chadhne laga hai
Hai ye bhi darr ki kahin toot na jaaye phir ek baar
Par ye dil ki mujhse...

How long dwell on should IOn fruitless life how long dwell on should I?
On needless strife how long dwell on should I?
Let me salute my foe’s fairest friendship,
On faults and gripe how long dwell on should I?
That far off dweller we fail to follow,
His irks so rife-- how long dwell on should I?
On her dreams to flower that have faded--
On...

Joy of life create will I‘Lone, my life decorate will I
And joy of life create will I.
A fast flowing streamlet am I,
My way forward ferret will I.
As my wishes are all my own,
Carry ‘pon me their weight will I.
What’s longing? Just a paper boat,
Set it on sail my crave will I.
She once called me a road-side stone,
As...

Frogs in HeavenIf I ever find my mind in a sermon from heaven
Or ever blind as a frog in a broken earthen oven
I’d hop my hump back down to earth
And yawp my stump for a crown of worth
Real heaven can exist in the commotion of a threshold
Reckon, if you can, and resist the...

The Hidden Paan Shop
Hidden beneath the leaves of trees is a blue shop -
Gleefully I smile; half - construed but true shop.
No soul in sight, parking heedlessly, now I plight -
Wearing chapals, I go in - flight to this new shop.
Entering, I see a man’s mouthy visage -
Working he spits in a silver bowl in this rue...

The Alchemist of LoveTonight from all but you, beloved, I shall part—
Transform this copper heart to gold through love's bright art.
To taste the drops of your love's sweet alchemy,
Through passion's flame I guide my soul to ecstasy.
The chang and harp intoxicate my heart undone,
Yet your voice's magic echo far outshines the sun.
You spoke of rain, of thorny roads,...

Burden became my lifeHither all her desires, thither my fires,
Balancing both, burden became my life.
In hope of love I walked with wilderness,
Breathe in, breathe out, mundane became my life.
For an excuse to smile, I just shed tears,
Crematorium’s cauldron became my life.
You came to my world, to a wrong address,
To blessings beholden became my life.
Flowers vie with thorns...

My PermissionIn life’s fierce storms, I stand, my heart’s own mission,
No wound can pierce me without my permission.
The world may rage, its arrows sharp and swift,
Yet I decide if pain gains my admission.
Words like daggers, thrown with cruel intent,
Fall harmless when denied my heart’s submission.
For I am sovereign of my soul’s domain,
No trespasser can breach without...

This lifeA crystal clear imprint this life,
Still, true story’s false hint this life.
Life of great possibilities
Lived only ten percent, this life.
Sheer look that murders and gives life,
What a romantic hint this life!
A beauty spot--her soft black mole,
Yet, no less than a flint this life.
It lets a thousand flowers bloom
Ah with a distinct tint this life.
A flip...

Desert-lands of remorseIf desert-lands of remorse can be crossed ahead, enough,
Cage deemed as open sky, if my wings can be spread, enough.
Yon, when the winking sky is found willing to welcome me,
If just half-closed window can be all-ajar made, enough.
To set foot-tracks on hills,...

It were youWiping own tears who made me smile were you,
Who never let my sorrows pile were you.
In a house haunting where I lived alone,
Who even made loneliness smile were you.
Few bother broods like me in busy world,
To my life’s lamp who supplied oil were you.
I recall playing as children long back,
One that let...

Solitary CreatureNew kid lost in a new world, when separated
from what was known and loved, alone when separated.
Some animals regrow lost parts of themselves: twisted limbs or tail.
Parasites die without another to depend on. They die when separated.
Barnacularly reaching out to anyone who will notice, with bird-like wails,
desperate to be seen, to survive, before it is...

Pen-pushers frost in timeThey think they’re Keats and Frost of time,
Some pen-pushers are frost in time.
All they pen, not but passing rhyme,
Is set sail, a big boast in time,
Which, all of self-promoted stuff
Gathers black and white dust in time.
Let some prayers be said for them:
Their footprints last on coast in time.
Heart wishes well, head less than least,
I...
